Recovering From An "Unconfirmed" Tornado

Sorry for not posting anything in a while, but my neighborhood was hit by big storm last Wednesday and we are still recovering.

Power was restored 2 days later, our phone was working but is back out again, and we just got our Internet back this morning, nearly 6 days after the storm.

All things considered we feel pretty lucky because a huge tree fell into our front yard blocking the street and taking down all the wires to the utilities. Had the tree been 15 ft taller it would have gone through the front windows of our home.

Be patient....I am still clearing the tree from my front yard and wires still block our driveway. I am hoping to post something photographic soon.

Becoming A Sports Photographer

Came across a pretty good video from Harry How, a sports photographer with Getty Images. I must say a lot of what he says hits home with me and validates my path to date.

Check it out and let me know what you think.
